General Safety Instructions

Follow these guidelines to ensure the safe use of your
PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless Communications Center
and accessories.

Pager Transmitter Safety

The FAA has regulations concerning the use of electronic devices
aboard aircraft. When boarding an aircraft, set the radio transmit-
ter mode to Off on your PageWriter 2000X Two-Way Wireless
Communications Center to avoid potential interference with air-
craft radio communication or navigation equipment.

In hospital or blasting zones, set the radio transmitter mode to
Receive Only. This prevents potential transmission interference
with sensitive medical equipment or explosives devices.

Battery Safety

• Do not dispose of the rechargeable NiMH battery in fire. Bat-

teries can explode when exposed to fire.

• To prevent injury or burns, do not allow metal objects to con-

tact or short circuit the battery terminals.

• Recharge the Motorola 3.6 V NiMH battery (0186386G01) only

with the recommended Motorola battery charger
(0186388G02). Charging this battery by any other method or
with a product not approved by Motorola may cause damage to
the battery.

• Do not charge batteries other than Motorola’s 3.6 V NiMH bat-

tery (0186386G01) in the Motorola battery charger
(0186388G02). Charging other batteries can cause those bat-
teries to burst or explode, resulting in personal injury or prop-
erty damage.

Battery Charger Safety

• Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
• Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Motorola

may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

• Make sure the cord is located where it will not be stepped on,

tripped over, pinched, or subjected to damage or stress.

• If you need to use an extension cord, make sure:

—the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same num-
ber, size, and shape as those on the plug of the charger;
—the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical
condition; and
—the cord size is 18AWG for lengths up to 100 feet and
